A Spanish school founded by Spanish teachers

Learning a new language can be frustrating sometimes.

We know that feeling of getting stuck mid-sentence during a conversation all too well. That’s why we founded Jaleo. We teach based on how YOU learn, with our methodology specifically designed to help you get over your Spanish-phobia.

Meet the School

Our school is located in the Salamanca neighborhood of Madrid, near the Manuel Becerra, Lista and Diego de León metro stations. Near to our school you can find a lot of places to eat or have a drink with your classmates. Our classrooms have a capacity of between four and eight students. Each one of them is equipped with WiFi, a whiteboard and air conditioning.

In addition, at the school you will find a student area, a library, a water fountain, a sofa and restrooms. Within our classes you are allowed to drink water and other beverages. However, as a general rule, you should not eat inside the classroom, except on special occasions.

Cultural Activities

Do you want to enjoy gastronomy, art, idioms, etc.? Do you want to practice outside of class?

We offer a cultural class every week, outside of the course schedule. Those sessions can be at the school or outside and you can learn about the culture, meet new people, and practice Spanish.

These activities are not mandatory and they are included in all intensive, semi-intensive, and part-time courses. For free!

Additionally, one Saturday per month, students and teachers gather at a typical market in Madrid for the coolest event at the school, “Hangout with Jaleo”. There, we practice the language, get to know all the schoolmates, and have something to drink in a relaxed and fun atmosphere. All our students love it!

Our Mission

Discover Madrid!

We want that you feel at home and that you can use your #Spanish4life learned in our classes!

Communication

Are you fed up with boring grammar lessons? We’ll provide the perfect balance between theory and practice. Learn how to (effectively) communicate in Spanish

Customized

We want you to learn Spanish but we want you to feel comfortable as well. We’ll guide you in your path so you can learn #spanish4life.

Welcome to our Spanish school, proudly accredited by the esteemed Institute Cervantes. As an accredited institution, we have the privilege of issuing enrollment letters to students who require visas for their studies in Spain. These enrollment letters hold official recognition by Spanish consulates and embassies, serving as credible proof of your study plans.

At our school, we value each student’s aspirations and recognize the significance of studying abroad. Whether you are seeking to learn the Spanish language, immerse yourself in the rich culture, or pursue academic excellence, we are here to support your goals.
